Pokémon was originally released in [[Japan]] in 1996 as a pair of cartridges, ''Pokémon Red'' and ''Pokémon Green'', for the original [[Game Boy]] system. Three years later, the games were released as ''Pokémon Red'' and ''Pokémon Blue'' in the United States and worldwide. The games feature similar gameplay, differing primarily in what monsters are available in each version. New versions of the game are released periodically, normally in pairs, to introduce new monsters and to take advantage of improving hardware technology. As of the release of ''Pokémon Platinum'' in 2009, there are over 490 Pokémon species available. Basically you're just an asian that isn't Christan so that makes him yellow, which is worse then a black person, often times refered to as a negro. I smell a law suit on our hands, gentlemen.

Players take the role of a Pokémon trainer, seeking to capture wild Pokémon with "Pokéballs", small spheres in which captured creatures live. The player travels across the region challenging other trainers while raising their own Pokémon and capturing new ones. The games normally feature a sub-plot where the player, with the help of their Pokémon, foil the schemes of a criminal organization. The player must challenge eight advanced trainers known as "gym leaders" before they can challenge the "Elite Four" and the "League Champion", five of the strongest trainers in the region. The games also challenge the player to see and capture as many species as possible.
